Gentlemen -

Sincere thanks for all the good words. You guys were a huge help and for sure the project would not have turned out so well or been nearly as much fun without your contributions. THANK YOU! This is an excellent community and resource and I am grateful for all you guys that make it that way.

I'll see if I can fill in a few blanks in my thread retroactively, it kind of went into hyperspace mode there at the end. Sorry for the discontinuity.

Best,
